1 Wash the lemons with warm water to remove any dirt or wax. Trim the hard stem end, cut the lemons into quarters and remove the seeds. Cut lemon quarters into chunks. If you have thick-skinned lemons, or if the blossom end is nubby, trim it to reduce bitterness.
2 Combine the prepared lemons, strawberries, sugar, and 2 cups of water in the carafe of a blender.
3 Blend on high until smooth, about 30 seconds.
4 Strain the lemonade over a pitcher using a fine-mesh sieve. Use a silicone spatula to press the pulp against the strainer and wring out the remaining juice. You could discard the pulp, if you’d like.
5 Add the remaining 2 cups of water to the lemonade. Stir to combine. Serve lemonade over ice. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
